SARAH ROSE TRKSAK

Sarah "Sally" Rose (McDonald) Trksak, 95, entered eternal life on Friday, February 22, 2013 at her son's home with her loving family by her side.

Born in Brooklyn, NY, daughter of the late William and Sara (Carney) McDonald, she was formerly of Levittown, NY, and Grahamsville, NY, and for the past five years has lived with her son, Ralph and daughter-in-law, Christine in Manville, NJ.

Sally was an avid sewer and baker. She often sewed for neighbors and would make some type of dessert for family every day. Sally would love to have "happy hour" with friends or family, sharing her favorite Wild Irish Rose wine.

For the past four years, Sally attended the Somerset County Adult Day Center, where she enjoyed the Cooking Club.

She relied on God in every situation and prayed the rosary faithfully. She was a communicant of Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Church in Manville and formerly of the Church of the Immaculate Conception in Woodbourne, NY.

Sally was a member of the Wantagh-Levittown Volunteer Ambulance Corps. Always loving and smiling, Sally's favorite quote to live by was "do all the good you can, to all the people you can..."

Besides her parents, Sally was predeceased by her husband, George Trksak in 1989; son, William Trksak; grandson, Jonathan Futterer; son-in-law, Edward Federowicz, and daughter-in-law, Carole Trksak.

Sally was devoted to her children and family: Anne Marie Federowicz of Florida; George Trksak, Bernadette / Hans Futterer and John Trksak / Michelle DeVeau of New York; Ralph / Christine Trksak and Constance / Hamdy Tawfick of New Jersey.
